Experimental and theoretical progress toward quantum computation with spins in quantum
dots (QDs) is reviewed, with particular focus on QDs formed in GaAs heterostructures, on …

The mesoscopic spin system formed by the 10 4–10 6 nuclear spins in a semiconductor
quantum dot offers a unique setting for the study of many-body spin physics in the …

Coherent excitation of an ensemble of quantum objects underpins quantum many-body
phenomena and offers the opportunity to realize a memory that stores quantum information …

Self-assembled quantum dots have excellent photonic properties. For instance, a single
quantum dot is a high-brightness, narrow-linewidth source of single photons. Furthermore …

One fundamental requirement for quantum computation is to carry out universal
manipulations of quantum bits at rates much faster than the qubit's rate of decoherence …

The interaction of an electronic spin with its nuclear environment, an issue known as the
central spin problem, has been the subject of considerable attention due to its relevance for …

Resonant laser scattering along with photon correlation measurements established the atom-
like character of quantum dots. Here, we show that for a wide range of experimental …

The spin of a carrier trapped in a self-assembled quantum dot has the potential to be a
robust optically active qubit that is compatible with existing III–V semiconductor device …

We review recent theoretical and experimental advances toward understanding the effects
of nuclear spins in confined nanostructures. These systems, which include quantum dots …

We have measured the carrier spin dynamics in p-doped InAs/GaAs quantum dots by pump-
probe and time-resolved photoluminescence experiments. We obtained experimental …
